I sell Coke in the doomsday

After all, he is an outsider.

However, I don’t care about these, and I have never thought about getting anything from the ancient city stronghold.

"that……"

I took a step forward, put my arms around Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao's shoulders, and spoke to Li Yi and Gao Lian.

"Didn't I bring these two people here yesterday? One construction engineer is enough for one base, so I thought of sending one to the shield base."

"What do you two think?"

Hearing this, Gao Lian turned away somewhat embarrassedly, but then turned back again and found that Li Yi was looking at him.

Under Li Yi's gaze, Gao Lian sighed, walked forward embarrassedly, and spoke stutteringly.

“Well…how should I put it?”

"We discussed it again yesterday and felt that this ancient city base was a little too small."

"It seems that construction engineers can't play any role here. It's a bit of a waste of talent."

Hearing this, I understood what Gao Lian meant. Looking at his embarrassment and the way he was looking for words on the spot, I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

Just yesterday, Gao Lian obviously wanted a construction engineer, but in a short period of time yesterday, he changed his mind.

As for the person who made him change his mind, it seems not difficult to guess.

I pretended to smile nonchalantly, nodded seemingly generously, and said.

"Nothing, everyone has their own ideas, right?"

As I said this, I shifted my gaze, passed by Li Yi standing in the shadows of the ancient city stronghold, and set my eyes on Ajie who was whispering with Wang Zixuan, and shouted loudly.

"Ajie, do you want two construction engineers?"

Ajie was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses, patted his chest and spoke loudly.

"Yes! Why not!"

"Only a fool would want such a treasure. Don't even mention two, I want ten!"

I have reason to suspect that Ajie is definitely being sarcastic, because I clearly see Gao Lian's face becoming more and more embarrassed, while Li Yi is like a wooden man, with no change in his expression.

But what disgusts me is that his gaze always seems to fall on Tongtong behind me inadvertently.

Chapter 132 Contradiction (II)

I always thought that I was not a petty person, until I saw Li Yi's eyes, I realized that I was a petty person.

"That's it. You two should stay with Ajie from now on."

I don’t know how Li Yi changed Gao Lian’s mind, but no matter how I think about it, Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao must have not had a very comfortable time last night.

After hearing my arrangement, Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao looked at each other, their eyes full of fatigue and bitterness, and forced a smile.

It can be seen that they don't seem to have any expectations.

At this moment, Gao Lian smiled slightly and said to the two men.

"Don't worry, the Shield Stronghold is very large and is definitely more suitable for you than the Ancient City Stronghold."

After Gao Lian finished speaking, Li Yi also took a step forward and added in a low voice.

"The temple in the ancient city is small, and you two will just be buried here."

Seeing this, I patted Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao on the shoulders and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, it's different from here. Ajie is one of our own."

As soon as the words fell, the faces of several people present changed. Even Ajie, who was whispering with Wang Zixuan, turned to look at me in surprise.

Gao Lian looked shocked, took a few steps forward in surprise, looked at me, clenched his fists slightly, and spoke to me.

"What do you mean?"

It shouldn't be like this, I think.

Even if I really think that there is something wrong with Li Yi, I shouldn't have said what I just said. It hurts others and myself, and it has no effect at all. It will only make me regret it.

I know all of this and the consequences.

But I still said those words, perhaps because of the way Li Yi looked at Tongtong, but more of it came from the feeling of anger at being betrayed by a friend.

I raised my head slightly and looked at Gao Lian who seemed a little angry. There was a rustling sound in my ears, and I seemed to hear the sound of flames burning branches. It seemed that there was a ball of fire burning in my heart.

"Gao Lian, I want to ask you a question."

"Have I ever done anything to offend the ancient city stronghold?"

I didn’t, I never expected to get anything from the ancient city stronghold.

I just... just want to do what I can. I want to help them get rid of Liu Yong and let them live the life they should live.

For them, I was pierced by bullets, and I wrestled with Liu Yong on the ground, got my head smashed and my joints broken.

But in the end, they began to be wary of me and refused to give me a chance.

I never brought Sun Zheng and others here to expand my influence. I just wanted to make the best use of everything so that the people in the ancient city can live a better life.

Gao Lian clenched his fists, looked at my expressionless face, and shook his head slowly.

"No, you have never let down the ancient city stronghold."

"On the contrary, the Ancient City Stronghold owes you too much."

I met Gao Lian's gaze, nodded slightly, smiled casually, and spoke softly.

"Then don't use such perfunctory reasons to deal with me. It's too insulting."

Gao Lian's eye twitched, but he didn't answer. My gaze passed over Gao Lian's body and fell on the ancient city wall behind them. My eyes were vague and I spoke slowly.

"You are worried about the people I brought with me. I don't know why you are worried."

"But because you are worried, I am beginning to worry about you too."

I took a step back slightly, clapped my hands gently, and spoke softly with a smile and distance on my face.

"It's better to part ways in peace, isn't it?"

Gao Lian seemed to have a dry mouth and explained to me in a panic.

"You misunderstood, that's not what we meant."

His eyes were flustered and evasive, and it was obvious that he was not a good liar.

I sighed, then fixed my eyes, looked at Gao Lian as usual, and spoke slowly.

"You don't need to explain too much. I can imagine what will happen next."

"Your suspicion of me will grow stronger and stronger, and under this suspicion, we will have many conflicts and quarrels."

"Until the end, everything fell out."

"I hate this tedious process, so let's be quick before we hate each other to the core."

Gao Lian's expression became more and more ugly. He probably never thought that simply pushing away the person I sent would lead to such a result.

But I really don’t want to maintain a close relationship with someone who is suspicious of me.

I have to make a decision right away without dragging my feet. Since they no longer trust me, I have to make everything clear before the situation gets into a quagmire.

Gao Lian seemed a little powerless, as if he still wanted to prove something to me, and said in a deep voice.

"Don't be so unreasonable. The ancient city stronghold really doesn't need any construction engineers."

"Besides, we don't want to owe you too much."

I did not answer Gao Lian's question immediately, but turned to look at Sun Zheng beside me and asked in a low voice.

"You should have told them yesterday that I could get a forklift."

Sun Zheng was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly. After seeing his reply, I took a deep breath and then exhaled gently.

"call……"

The next moment, I took a step forward and grabbed Gao Lian's collar with a ferocious look. In the corner of my eye, I clearly saw a flash of joy on Li Yi's face, and his right hand quickly reached for his waist.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be a pistol.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the field became tense. Everyone wanted to step forward to dissuade them, but they did not dare to act rashly.

I pinched Gao Lian's collar, looked at him coldly, and said.

"Do you know what you are talking about? Do you still remember who you are?"

"There are many houses and few fields in the ancient city. Even if the problem is not obvious now, sooner or later, you will find that there is not enough food."

"You need someone to help you plan the construction of the entire ancient city, and you also need someone to help you cultivate the fields."

"Sooner or later, you will need to expand this base."

"Sun Zheng and his team exist to help you solve these problems."

"You told me you don't need it?"

"You don't need it? Or do the people in the city not need it?"

After saying that, I let go of Gao Lian with some disappointment. Gao Lian was not a fool, there was no way he couldn't have thought of these things.

But why would he make such a stupid choice?

After I let go of his collar, Gao Lian staggered back a few steps. He raised his head slightly and looked at me with complicated eyes. He didn't make any rebuttal, but just whispered.

"Feel sorry."

I lowered my eyebrows and subconsciously glanced at Li Yi, and found that his hand had reached his waist, but he did not move further. I moved my gaze slightly and saw that Ajie had taken out the pistol at some point. Although he did not point it at anyone, his eyes were fixed on Li Yi.

It seems that this can no longer be considered an amicable parting.

I felt tired and ridiculous. I hadn't planned to do this, but I let my anger get the better of me and did this.

"That's it, you two should pack your bags and prepare to leave with Ajie."

I turned around, not wanting to say anything more, and everyone remained silent and started to get busy.

Half an hour later, Sun Zheng and Song Mingtao's family got into the jeep. There was no farewell and no unnecessary nonsense.

Ajie and I did not enter the ancient city stronghold from beginning to end, so we drove back in the direction we came from. I sat in the pickup truck and looked back through the rearview mirror.

Hopefully, I won’t have to return to the ancient city stronghold again.

Because, at that time, maybe it would be time for me to kill Li Yi and the others.

Chapter 133: Stormy Weather

At the ancient city stronghold, two car shadows disappeared on the plain.

At the gate of the stronghold, Wang Zixuan had a complicated expression. She glanced at Li Yi, who looked calm, bit her lips lightly, turned around and left, walking into the stronghold.

For a moment, Gao Lian and Li Yi were the only ones left at the gate of the stronghold.

Gao Lian looked dejected as he stared at the car disappearing from his sight. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Li Yi with some anger. Then he stepped forward and quickly walked in front of Li Yi, growling in a low voice.

"I shouldn't have listened to you!"

"Look at what it has become now!"

Facing Gao Lian who was so close to him, Li Yi raised his lips and revealed a slight smile. He stretched out his hand, gently pressed on Gao Lian's shoulder, and said gently.

“Isn’t this exactly what we want?”

Gao Lian's face froze. He didn't deny anything, but he didn't retreat.

Li Yi put his hand into his pocket, as if groping for something. He lowered his brows and continued speaking slowly.

"Su Li, he is too mysterious, hard to see and understand."

"He's not someone we can deal with. Think about it carefully. Is there really anyone who would help someone they've only met a few times like he did?"

"Especially in this world."

Gao Lian took a step back, seeming a little depressed. He loosened his collar with his hands and whispered.

"Isn't that what the boss is like?"
